« on: August 09, 2006, 05:29:50 PM »
Poor bloke lol

GEELONG Football Club has cancelled a testimonial to honour veteran Cat Peter Riccardi in Melbourne on Saturday, August 19.

The $150-a-head glamour night at the Melbourne Convention Centre has been called off and the club will look at other options to honour the club's third-longest serving player.

Why wouldn't they hold the night in Geelong?? To a bloke miles away it seems strange to hold it in the centre of Melbourne.

Couldn't agree more.  Also the cost - so many events to go to but you can't afford all of them.  To me, the B&F is the marquee event on any club's calendar, so people save to go to that.  At least in Geelong, you would have the home town people at a venue and probably wouldn't cost that much to put on.

Maybe they just don't like him  :wallywink
